The story was later told that to avoid attention on arrival in Westminster Hall, they concealed it under the stall of an apple seller, which is where Mill found it. - Mill spoke on the petition on 17 July 1866. A year later, the petition led to the first debate on votes for women. - It was not until 1928: Women in England, Wales and Scotland received the vote on the same terms as men (over the age of 21) as a result of the Representation of the People Act 1928.
